Sonko on Saturday officially ditched Raila Odinga's Azimio and joined Ruto's camp.

Former Nairobi Governor Mike Mbuvi Sonko has signed a deal with Deputy President William Ruto, Nairobi Senator Johnson Sakaja and UDA Mombasa Governor candidate Hassan Omar.

The contract of the deal has listed a list of positions the ex-governor will get if the three leaders win the August 9, polls.

The positions have been offered in exchange for Sonko''s support for Ruto, Sakaja and Omar's bids.

This now means that Sonkon will campaign for Ruto for the presidency and support Sakaja and Omar for their governor bids.

The governor had earlier declared he will support the ODM Leader Raila Odinga and Jubilee candidate Polycarp Igathe for the Nairobi governor seat.

In the deal, the DP has promised the ex-governor one Cabinet Secretary, three principal secretaries and four ambassadors posts if he wins the August 9, polls.

In Nairobi, Sakaja will offer Sonko, two CECs positions and three chief officers.

Omar on the other hand has offered Sonko three CECs positions, and three chief officers.

Sonko on Saturday officially ditched Raila Odinga's Azimio and joined Ruto's camp.
